The loch has fished extremely well over the past few days. Dries and wet fly’s just under the surface have produced the best sport. With higher water temperature the deep water drifts are now giving plenty of action. There have been large hatches of sedges and we are still seeing mayfly’s. On breezy days some anglers using dapping rods have had good fun raising fish but they have not landed many using this method.
